Yes you can, but you're not required to. The choice is yours. There's no momentum if you're just hanging there,
but there is if you're moving. Some people have it, others don't.

Which has more momentum a 250 kilogram dolphin swimming at 4 miles per second or a 350 kilogram manatee swimming at 2 meters per second?

I think you mean the dolphin's velocity is 4 metres per second.In which case the dolphin's momentum will be 1000 kg.m/secThe manatee will have less momentum (700 kg.m/sec)Linear momentum = mass times velocity.By the way, 4 miles per second = 14,400 miles per hour.


Which has more momentum a 250 kg dolphin swimming at 6 meters per second or a 450 kg manatee swimming at 2 meters per second?

momentum = mass * velocity dolphin: 50kg*10.4m/s = 520 kg (m/s) elephant: 6300 kg * .11 m/s = 693 kg (m/s) The elephant has more momentum because of its large mass, and will be harder to stop/ change its course.
